Wednesday, May 27
We speculated about what Miller would have said to HUAC, then read portions of his testimony (June 21, 1956) aloud.
We discussed what might be the relevance of The Crucible today, then looked at what several recent directors have had to say about why they chose to stage the play. Is the play about anti -terrorist hysteria? About terrorist fanaticism? Both?
HW due Thursday:
One brief typed paragraph on "What do we mean bythe American Dream"?
